a New Sponsor and a Give Away!

Pleasant Home has a NEW Sponsor! Designs by Tricia Anne.

Tricia just happens to have one of my favorite blogs...

Where she posts pretty pictures of flowers...

Awesome projects that she and her hubby make....

And she's recently taken up quilting. You must visit her blog and read her story about her new favorite hobby...

And.... she has an Etsy Shop. Where she sells Fabulous Jewelry!

Necklaces, Bracelets, Earrings, Lanyards, and Charms! Some super cute stuff!

I found this piece on her blog, I love it! I think I even like the photo as much as the jewelry...

And I've seen one of her lanyards in person. Truly it is ADORABLE! The photos, just don't do them justice. Wouldn't these be a great gift for a teacher or co-worker. (or to hang your badge on, at Quilt Market! oooooh that would be fun!)

And look at these fantastic earrings. Tricia will barter with you! She traded these with one of our fellow famous bloggers, for some fabric. (a girl has to have fabric to play with in her new favorite hobby, right?)

And look at these Charms! AH.DOOR.AH.BLE. I'm getting me a couple of these. I was thinking a few of them dangling from a necklace would be super cute!

And they're super cute attached to your favorite bag, clutch, tote, wallet, or cell phone cozy! The possibilities are endless! Just look at them on these adorable bags that her daughter made. Very cute.

Would you like to WIN this charm?

Or how about this one? (I'm getting one of these. It reminds me of cherries) ;o)

Tricia is not only sponsoring my blog. She's sponsoring a Give Away this week! Yay!
2 Lucky Winners! Each Winner gets to pick one of these charms as their prize!

Here's the RULES for ENTERING:
